A novel that takes a daring look at bulimia from behind closed bathroom doors.

Beauty will make readers think twice about the grim reality lurking behind today’s size-zero phenomenon, while shedding light on the sleep-deprived, often drug-fuelled existence of yacht crew.

Mena joins a luxury motor yacht in the Mediterranean, enticed by rumours of the fast-paced, highly paid crew lifestyle. Shocked to uncover the literally sick secrets of yachting’s achingly slim women and shattered by the reality of life on board, Mena soon discovers that yachting’s glamorous image is merely an illusion. Enter a world where the quest for the body beautiful surpasses everything and nothing is as it seems.
